{Homemade potato bread}

Porciones: Makes 2 loaves

INGREDIENTS

1 large russet potato (about a 12 oz potato)
2 cups (475 ml) milk
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon sugar
2 Tbsp olive oil
1 packet instant yeast (2 1/4 teaspoons)
5 cups (680g) all purpose flour

METHODHIDE PHOTOS

1 Cook, peel, mash the potato: You will need 6-8 ounces of mashed potato for this potato bread recipe. That's between 3/4 cup and one cup of mashed potatoes.
The easiest way to cook the potato is to poke it all over with the tines of a fork and microwave it 4 minutes on one side, 4 minutes on the other side, on high. Let it cool, then peel it, and mash it with a fork.
Or, you can boil the potato. Peel the potato, cut it into large chunks, cover it with water in a pot, bring to a simmer, and cook for 10 minutes or so until a fork easily goes through the potatoes, drain, cool, and mash.
2 Heat the milk, whisk in mashed potato: Heat 2 cups of milk in a medium saucepan, until it is steamy, then remove from heat. Whisk in the salt, sugar, olive oil and the mashed potato.
Pour into the mixing bowl of a standing mixer (or just a large bowl if you don't have a mixer), and let cool until it is still warm, but no longer hot, to the touch. (If the mixture is too hot, it will kill the yeast in the next step.)

3 Add yeast and 2 cups of flour: Stir in the yeast. Stir in 2 cups of the flour. Use a standing mixer such as a KitchenAid (recommended), attach the mixing paddle, and mix on medium high speed for 4 minutes. This will help break up any potato lumps and help incorporate the mashed potatoes into the dough.
(If you are using a bread machine, put the milk potato mixture, the yeast, and all of the flour into the bread machine and knead for 8 minutes, skip the next step and proceed to step 5.)
4 Add the remaining flour and knead: Swap out the mixing paddle for the dough hook on your mixer. Add the remaining 3 cups of flour and mix on medium low speed for 8 minutes. The dough should be rather loose and a little tacky.

5 Put dough into a large bowl, let dough rise: Rub the inside of a large bowl with some olive oil. Transfer the dough from the mixing bowl and put it into this large bowl (can use your mixing bowl if you clean it, and coat the inside with oil). Gently coat the top of the dough with a little olive oil.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a dampened towel (to prevent the dough from drying out). Place in a warm spot for 2 hours or overnight.

The dough should at least double in size. You'll know when it has risen sufficiently when you press into the top with your fingertip and the indentation remains for a while.
6 Punch down the dough, place in loaf pans: Press down on the dough with your hand to deflate it. Turn it out onto a clean lightly floured surface and knead a couple of times. Cut the dough into two halves (a pastry scraper comes in handy for this).

Rub a little olive oil inside of two 8x4-inch loaf pans. Place a dough half in each and press the dough into the bottom of the pans.

7 Let dough rise again: Coat the top of the loaves with a little olive oil. Cover the loaf pans with plastic wrap and put in a warm place for 45 minutes to an hour or longer, until the dough has doubled in size.
8 Bake: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Remove the plastic wrap from the loaf pans and gently place the loaf pans in the oven in the middle rack. Bake for 35 minutes until the crust is golden brown and the internal temperature is between 190 and 200°F.

While the bread is still warm in the pan, use a dull dinner knife and run along the edge of the pan between the pan and the bread to loosen the bread from the pan. Turn out of the loaf pans on to a rack, let cool completely before slicing.

{Serrano Ham & Manchego Cheese Pinwheels}

These pinwheels were inspired by my trip to cooking school this fall.  The chefs at cooking school grilled a piece of serrano ham wrapped manchego cheese and served it with our salad.  It was amazing!  I knew I had to come home and put my own spin on it.  I decided to make these Serrano Ham & Manchego Cheese Pinwheels.  They were fantastic.  I had a hard time finding serrano ham, but I eventually found it at Sam's Club and World Market.  Manchego cheese is readily available in the deli cheese section at the grocery store.  These pinwheels were delicious and would be a great addition to your Super Bowl menu on Sunday.

1 sheet puff pastry sheets , thawed (1/2 of a 17.3-ounce package)
1 1/2 oz serrano ham
1 oz manchego cheese, grated
ranch dressing
brown mustard

Preheat the oven to 400°F.

Unfold the pastry sheet on the work surface, and top with the cheese.  Top cheese with serrano ham.

Starting at a short side, roll up like a jelly roll. Cut into about 16 slices.  Place the slices, cut-side down, onto baking sheet.

Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the pastries are golden brown.  Serve with ranch dressing or brown mustard for dipping, if desired.

{Baked rigatoni with bechamel sauce}

Total Time: 55 min
Prep: 25 min
Cook: 30 min
Yield:6 servings
Level:Intermediate

Giada uses prosciutto and creamy bechamel sauce in one divine pasta dish.

Ingredients

1 stick unsalted butter (4 ounces)
1/2 cup and 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 quart whole milk, at room temperature
Pinch fresh nutmeg
Sea salt and white pepper
1 cup grated fontina
1/2 pound thinly sliced prosciutto, julienned
1 pound dry rigatoni
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, diced

Directions

Watch how to make this recipe.
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
In a 2 quart saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the flour and whisk until smooth, about 2 minutes. Always stirring, gradually add the milk and continue to whisk until the sauce is smooth and creamy. Simmer until it is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. This will take approximately 10 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in nutmeg, 1/2 cup fontina, prosciutto and season with salt and white pepper. Set aside.
In a large pot, bring to a boil 6 quarts of salted water. Add the rigatoni and cook for about 5 minutes. Since you will be cooking the pasta a second time in the oven, you want to make sure the inside is still hard. Drain in a colander. Return pasta to the pot and pour in bechamel sauce. Using a wooden spoon, mix well until all the pasta is coated with the sauce.
Into a greased 13 by 9-inch baking dish, pour the pasta with cream sauce. Smooth out top and sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup fontina. Dot the top with diced butter and bake in oven for 25 minutes or until bubbling and the top is golden brown.
